There are none whatever. He says that the

But the funniest blunder. Of all Is Stains
statement to the effect that tho first intimation
the robbers had that Barron had been fatally
injured was WHOM early the next morning they
read OF his death In tho Daily Telegram at
SkowheSan. There is not and has never been
any such paper In Showhegan or anywhere
else In the State, and as Barron only expired

1t is now known that young Stain on several
occasions in the past has offered various de-
tectiyes and reporters tall stories for a cash
consideration, and he has evidently found
customer at last and given the public some Of
the liveliest romances OF the times.
